Artificial Languages, Text Sounds, and the old Rope-a-Dope

We feature a few artists who sing or speak in invented languages, some pure spoken word performances, and some new musical releases which coincidentally feature machine god Tom Djll. Words by Ron Heglin, Tom Djll, Jaap Blonk, John Cage, Laurie Anderson, keyboards, synths, electric guitars, runglers, blippoo boxes, the infamous Meng Qi Wing Pinger, by Tom Djll, Jonathan Segel, Ed Herrmann, and maybe Philip Glass if he’s available.
